Madam Chair, thank you for yielding.
First, I want to thank Chairman Cartwright and Ranking Member Aderholt for their work on the fiscal year 2023 Commerce, Justice, Science, Appropriations bill.
I also want to thank the committee staff for the time and effort they have devoted to this very important bill.
The Commerce-Justice-Science bill supports initiatives that:
WASHINGTON – Today, the full committee met to consider the fiscal year 2023 subcommittee spending levels, known as "302(b)" allocations. The appropriations bills for the subcommittees on Defense and Legislative Branch were also considered by the full committee.
WASHINGTON – Today, the State and Foreign Operations Subcommittee and the Commerce, Justice, and Science Subcommittee considered their appropriations bills for fiscal year 2023. The measures were reported out to the full committee with concerns raised by Republicans.
Madam Chair, thank you for yielding.
As we sit here today, inflation is 8.6 percent above last year, the highest it's been in more than 40 years. Economists are saying American households should budget an extra $5,000 this year to cover rising prices – that's over $400 a month. Many families simply cannot afford this.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for yielding and for your work on the fiscal year 2023 Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies appropriations bill. I also want to recognize and thank my friend, the ranking member of the subcommittee, Mr. Aderholt. I know both of you have worked together to address priorities of Members on both sides of the aisle.
The Commerce-Justice-Science bill supports initiatives that:
- Strengthen the ability of the United States to be competitive around the world;
- Invest in cutting-edge research and technology; and
- Protect children and our communities.
It also contains vital funding for NASA, which is critical to maintain our path toward renewed dominance in space. Unfortunately, while this bill funds many important programs, it is based on a funding level that passed the House without Republican support.
